| Well I’m standin' all alone
|
| By the river of my home
|
| Thinkin' 'bout the days I’ve left behind
|
| All the years I rode
|
| Not a nickel can I show
|
| And the river helps to ease my worried mind
|
| Well the river run all night
|
| Lord, the river runs all day
|
| I can’t run no more 'cause I’m here to stay
|
| I had an eye for trouble
|
| And I’ve lived a life of pain
|
| I sit back and let that water heal my brain
|
| I’m letting go of all my trouble
|
| I think I’ll be right here to stay
|
| Well the water keeps a-churnin' while my poor heart is burnin'
|
| Muddy water, take my pain away
|
| Well one thing I want to know
|
| Lord, is where we people go
|
| When everything comes crashin' to the ground
|
| Meet me at the creek
|
| Grab a beer and tap your feet
|
| See that muddy water flowin' down
|
| I’m letting go of all my trouble
|
| I think I’ll be right here to stay
|
| Well the water keeps a-churnin' while my poor heart is burnin'
|
| Muddy water, take my pain away
|
| Well I’m standin' all alone
|
| By the river of my home
|
| Thinkin' 'bout the days I’ve left behind
|
| All the years I rode
|
| Not a nickel can I show
|
| And the river helps to ease my worried mind
|
| I’m letting go of all my trouble
|
| I think I’ll be right here to stay
|
| Well the water keeps a-churnin' while my poor heart is burnin'
|
| Muddy water, take my pain away
|
| Muddy water, take my pain away |
